Ashokan Reservoir watercolor

This is elongated format. I accidentally ordered wrong size mat and this is what they sent me. :)
It's 2.5 x 5 inches.

Here is a link to an article on the Ashokan Reservoir:  http://www.nyc.gov/html/dep/html/watershed_protection/ashokan.shtml

I live just a few miles from it and go for walks quite often. It's about 12 miles long and about a mile wide. Best time is at sunset as you probably see from my posts!

These are about 3x3 inches and $125 unframed plus shipping (outside the U.S.)

Leena asked me how I frame these small paintings- there's a pic on my website joycewashor.wordpres.com of me in front of paintings.Also, I cut the paper before I paint but I often crop them with a mat before framing. I'll have to take a pic of new white frame and post it!
Thanks Leena for the questions!

One of the first paintings that my husband and I bought (over 25 years ago) was of the Ashokan Reservoir- not a watercolor, an oil by Barbara Boyd. These are reminiscent of that painting. Inspiration can come from your own collection!

Two very different color feelings. We lost power yesterday because of storm - but thankful it didn't last too long. Life is yin/yang!
Both watercolors are 3x3 inches.
